It took a hit. Grease would be faint to missing.
The wear on the hair doesn’t match the wear elsewhere on the coin. Too many circulation hits for the wear and on the obverse in the word GOD there...
You have a fine example of split plate doubling, which is another form of NAV. The copper plating on this zinc cent is what causes it to look this...
Nice little strike through!
Nice little common error. Congratulations

Thanks, it’s a nice looking coin but all I really see is that die chip behind Abe’s neck.
I need to see the entire coin.

Very nice errors my friend, very nice!

Very nice looking. Glad to hear you got to a coin show.
That’s a great looking piece you’ve got there @fretboard. Congratulations!
A beautiful coin you got there.
Thank you and I do plan on leaving it as is in its current holder with the old green label. Sometimes it’s nice to see a nice coin with a green label.
